2025 in Review: 7 important achievements of SpaceForest in the past year

2025 was a year of intensive growth for SpaceForest, marked by groundbreaking projects and further strides toward the commercialization of Polish space technologies. From rockets and radars to space-grade electronics – here is a summary of our most significant achievements over the recent months.

1. SF-1000 Engine Tests and Flight of PERUN Rocket

Tests of the new SF-1000 engine and the third test flight of PERUN rocket have confirmed the readiness of key systems: TVC (Thrust Vector Control), FTS (Flight Termination System), telemetry, and recovery. The flight also facilitated the conduct of scientific experiments on board the Polish suborbital rocket.

2. Agreement with RADMOR and participation in the GLADIUS project

The signing of a cooperation agreement with RADMOR (WB GROUP) has opened a new chapter in the development of domestic satellite, communication, and cryptographic technologies. The partnership covers areas such as satellite platforms, sensors, communication systems, and cryptographic solutions for the space and defense sectors.

A shared vision—rooted in the belief that innovation drives space exploration and that the fusion of science and technology allows us to push the boundaries of what is possible—forms the foundation of the cooperation between the two companies.

“We believe that Poland’s future in space begins here and now”
– emphasizes Robert Magiera, CEO of SpaceForest.

The radar serves as an advanced component of the Gladius system, enhancing reconnaissance effectiveness and support for defense operations. The solution was designed and manufactured in accordance with current defense sector standards, enabling its integration with military operating systems. The system’s functionality and resilience were confirmed through comprehensive environmental testing conducted under variable weather and temperature conditions.

4. BiRaKos – development of a key space radar subsystem

As part of the BiRaKos project, SpaceForest is responsible for the development and construction of a key radar subsystem, which is a vital element of the national space surveillance system. The solution is designed to monitor objects in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and strengthens national capabilities in Space Situational Awareness (SSA) and space security. The project integrates high-frequency electronics, advanced signal processing, and reliable transceiver systems designed to operate in demanding electromagnetic environments.

2026 will mark the next stage of SpaceForest’s consistent and dynamic growth. Upcoming planned PERUN flights under the ESA Boost! contract, preparations for international launches and further work on advanced space electronics and radars confirm SpaceForest’s ambition to become one of the key players in the European space sector.

“The largest companies in the space sector already see us as a valuable partner. Our initial successes in tackling demanding technological challenges are proof of this”

emphasizes Robert Magiera, pointing to SpaceForest’s participation in SALTO project and the FLIP maneuver of Themis, the orbital rocket.
